#1 I don't know if a body count is necessary. I like when they just disappear.

#2 Not enough and kudos to the Afghan troops.

They're lean, they're getting mean and they've got 10 years to make up.

#3 Instead of reporting this good news, we're hearing about Warren Zevon dying of cancer.

I don't even know who Warren Zevon is! Give me my EKIA reports, and don't leave out any juicy details!

#4 Don't know Zevon??? "Carmelita"? "Poor poor pitiful me"? "I'll sleep when I'm dead"? "Werewolves of London"? it's a huge loss

#5 "Roland The Headless Thompson Gunner" and "Lawyers, Guns And Money" are my favorites. He'll be missed.

#6 Steve - Roland "from the land of the midnight sun" is a classic as are so many other lesser known songs...missed is right
